I’m pretty sure this isn’t accurate for most of the US. It has been upheld in some courts as protected under the 5th amendment. Providing access to your device through any means can be construed as being forced to testify against oneself. In sone circumstances a judge can issue a warrant, but if police do this without consent it is illegal search.
Outside of these extreme circumstances, I primarily like the convenience of fingerprint biometrics when compared to facial recognition.
From a security perspective, my device gives way nore access than ai care for from the lock screen that I can’t disable wothout disabling the features when it is unlocked as well and the average user will lack the skills for this configuration. Device security is in a nightmare state right now.

From my understanding it's considered the equivalent of fingerprinting or mug shots, both of which can be compelled.
